Creative in London
My name is Steven Nicholas Colborne. I’m a multi-passionate creative, which essentially means I have a wide range of interests and passions and create a variety of things. I live in London.
Through a spiritual journey that has involved immersive explorations of major world religions and philosophical traditions, I have become well versed in the philosophies of Christianity, Islam and Judaism, as well as New Age and Eastern spirituality.
As a teenager I worked in a music shop and formed a heavy metal band named Marconi’s Voodoo, who became well established in the UK. I graduated with a first-class BA (Hons) degree in Commercial Music from the University of Westminster in 2003, and went on to work for the Beggars Group in an Online Promotion role. I subsequently worked as New Media Marketing Manager for a music industry digital marketing agency called Motion Group.
I returned to study in 2010, graduating with a postgraduate certificate in Philosophy and Religion from the University of London in 2012. I went on to write fifteen books in the Philosophical Theology genre.
My stint as a Street Fundraiser for Greenpeace taught me about climate and energy issues, and working as Office Administrator for Age UK Oxfordshire taught me about the experiences of older people. In my role as Befriending Coordinator at Imagine Independence I developed a volunteer training program and a befriending service for people with mental health issues.
I have undertaken voluntary work for three charities: Crisis, Spires and Sue Ryder.
I suffered a series of admissions to psychiatric hospital between 2007 and 2024, surviving a suicide attempt in 2022, and have undergone counselling and psychotherapy numerous times, all of which led me to become a part-time volunteer counsellor.
I am currently working on promoting my books and other creative work to people who are interested in philosophy, religion, and spirituality. I also have a Substack publication called Reflections which offers daily weekday articles to encourage readers on their spiritual journey.
I consider all that I do to be an expression of my calling to serve God with all my heart, soul, mind and strength and to love my neighbour as myself.
